Chinese Scimitar Sword

Forged with folded steel, which is a mixture of 1045 soft steel, 1060 high carbon steel, manganese spring steel and many more smaller portions of other steels. This mixture is then folded multiple times to remove impurities, creating over ten-thousand individual steel layers, finally producing arguably the best sword-making steel available, a technique renowned for smithing the finest combat sword blades. 

Further promoting perfection, is the very difficult process of clay tempering the blade. This process precisely facilitates hardening of the blade’s edge, while leaving the blade’s core and spine softer and thus resilient. Definitely a marker of advanced sword-making technology and visibly identifiable on this Chinese broad sword blade. 

Completed with a genuine aged-Sandalwood scabbard, premium copper fittings – many of which are hand carved creations, and finally a practical Sandalwood + quality-cord handle, this Chinese curved sword is finished in full traditional fashion. 

Fit for high-end collection, a pleasure to own, and a versatile, very powerful Chinese sword to use.
